Why Urban Getaways Make Unforgettable Incentives

This curated resource for planners features five distinctive city-based properties that go beyond the expected to deliver impact, style, and substance. Each destination offers a unique urban experience that inspires and rewards the most demanding incentive participants.

The Radisson Collection Royal Hotel, Copenhagen isn’t just a hotel – it’s a design landmark. Originally conceived by Arne Jacobsen as the world’s first design hotel, it continues to set the benchmark for Scandinavian style. Set in the heart of the city, the property offers incentive guests a gateway to Michelin-starred dining, curated museum tours, and guided design experiences.

Riga, Latvia’s creative capital, offers an unexpected urban escape packed with personality. The Radisson Blu Latvija Conference & Spa Hotel, Riga soars above the city, offering panoramic views, a rooftop cocktail bar, a luxe ESPA spa, and more.

Beyond its famous Art Nouveau architecture and cobbled old town, Riga has a thriving cultural and culinary scene, ideal for immersive group activities like market-to-table cooking experiences and underground art tours.

The Radisson Collection Hotel, Grand Place Brussels places groups at the heart of the EU capital, just steps from Gothic churches, world famous chocolates, and surrealist art. Brussels offers a truly memorable experience for incentives – participants can explore the city by bike, learn to make waffles with local artisans, or take day trips to nearby Ghent or Bruges.

Across the Mediterranean, Casablanca brings a different kind of urban energy. The Radisson Hotel Casablanca Gauthier La Citadelle combines traditional Moroccan style with sleek rooftop elegance. Cultural programming, private hammam experiences, and immersive city tours bring the vibrant spirit of North Africa to life – ideal for incentive groups seeking something strikingly different.

From iconic towers and palm-shaped islands to traditional souks and desert dunes, Dubai is a destination that dazzles. The Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Waterfront offers skyline views, a sleek rooftop terrace, and access to some of the emirate’s most exclusive locations.

Known for pushing boundaries, Dubai offers an unmatched array of experiences, from sunrise desert safaris and sunset yacht cruises to art galleries, world-class shopping and fine dining.

What ties these five cities together isn’t just great design, seamless service, or Instagram-worthy skyline views. It’s their ability to reward top performers with vibrancy, diversity, and cultural depth. Each one is rich in story, full of local flavour, and brimming with opportunities to make recognition feel personal and powerful.
